Delivery Lead Time - Please Explain

[Golfnut_mj]

I recently placed a deposit on a Touring that showed it is available. I have went through financing and everything is approved. My sales rep tells me that the vehicle is waiting to be PDI’d and needs to be detailed. I thought I was going to get the car this week. But looks like it’s going to be next week. I live in San Francisco and will need to fly down to SoCal to pickup the car and drive it back.

I wish there’s more information on the lead time to help me with my trip planning. Also, I don’t understand why it takes such a long time to do PDI and detail the car. I’m seeking insights from others who have gone through the process.

Shouldn't Lucid ship yours to San Francisco?

They’re offering onsite credit to pickup the vehicle in SoCal which I’m fine to do so. Plus, this gives me an excuse to do a roadtrip and get to know the car.

I had the a similar frustrating experience while getting my AT at Millbrae in Dec 2024 with delivery date moving several times despite the vehicle being there...
